Memory of Sorrow
Part 2: I Find True Love
By: Skuld-chan
I find true love
in your warm smile
I fly like a dove
fly that extra mile
Nuriko and I stood together as the last song ended. He leaned over, I leaned towards him. Just as we were about to kiss a warm red light surrounded him.
"What is this", I said panicky, "Nuriko? No you can't you can't be going back to the book. No! I can't live without you here"
The light along with Nuriko went back to the book.
"Noooooooooooo", I screamed.
This can't be happening. Nuriko said he'd stay here forever. He's not gone. He's can't be.
For the next 3 days I locked myself in my room, and cried selfishly. It hurt so much to not have him here. I got up from my bed, which was now soaked in tears and walked to the bedroom in which he once was. Instead of seeing him I saw an empty bed and a book.
"What's this", I walked over to the book and read it, it was the universe of the four gods. I flipped to the back, There was something there. A note. From Nuriko. It read...
Dear Suta,
I know that I'm just a character in a book, you know it as well. Someday I know I'll have to return to the book. I lie don't I? I promised that I'd stay there with you, but I don't think that I can. I'm so sorry and I feel so ashamed that I couldn't keep a promise to you. Soon I know the book will bring me back but when it does I want you to stay here and live your life. I want you to find the perfect guy and to forget about me. Promise me you will? I don't want you to be sad because of me. When I get to Konan the first thing I plan to do is to ask Taitskun to make me human. Then I'll come back to you. Maybe my family could come to. Actually our family. If I do return I'd want to marry you someday. Although I don't know if I could ever marry you because if I disappear again I'll just cause you pain. But for now live your life. Please, for me? Don't worry you're always with me. Wo Ai Ni.
~Nuriko
I held Nuriko's letter and cried, harder then ever. How could I forget about him. How could he expect me to? I hated it. But I knew what I had to do. I had to live my life. Like he requested. The next day I went back to college. I was graduating this year. Up till now I was really excited. But now it seemed so worthless. I returned home at 4:00 and got ready for work. I went to my job at a animating studio, as usual. No matter what I tried I couldn't forget him. I came home early with permission from my boss. I laid down on my bed and read Nuriko's letter over and over. While watching my tears fall to the paper. Wait a minute what about Mika, had Tasuki go back too. No! I dialed Mika's number. Dial tone once...twice...
"Hello", I heard Mika's weak voice on the other end.
"Did Tasuki..". I started.
"yes.."
Mika broke into tears. I tried to comfort her but soon I was crying too. How could this be happening? After about an hour of pain we hung up. Nuriko... I couldn't bear this anymore. My entire body hurt and felt like it was going to split, and Jessica I'm sure felt the same. I have to do something to bring him back or I'll never make it.
I sound so selfish don't I Nuriko. I'm being so stupid. But it's easy to be this way without you here. So how are you? Please say your ok. If something happens to you I'll never forgive myself for letting go of you. And what about Tasuki? Jessica would be so sad without him.
The door opened as I passed Nuriko's room. I saw it. The universe of the four Gods. Could that be the way to get back Nuriko and Tasuki?
"yes? This is Mika. Suta? What's up?", Mika asked.
"I think I've found a way to bring Tasuki and Nuriko back! Come over right away!", I said into the receiver.
Jessica arrived at my apartment about 30 min. later. We both had packed stuff and were now walking towards Nuriko's room and the universe of the four gods. I picked up the book and held it in between us.
Oh please let this work. I need to at least see if he's ok.
A sudden red light swallowed us up and we felt ourselves being carried off. To a different place. Somewhere... Where we hoped Nuriko and Tasuki would be waiting.
~-~ Stay tuned for the final chapter. ~-~
